"We're quite happy with the result: P2, first row, is a good position for the 24 hours," Basseng said. "The mechanics did an awesome job to prepare the car.

I'm confident for the race, the driver lineup is good and reliable and also the team has demonstrated to be well prepared for a tough race like this."
